Question

Jill wants to find the quotient use multiplication and distributive property to help Jill find the quotient of 144 divided by 8

Answer 1

120+24 divided by 8=
144 divided by 8= 18 because 18 times 8 equals 144

Answer 2

144 ÷ 8 = 18

Multiplication property: 18 × 8 = 144

Distributive property: (8 × 10) + (8 × 8) = 80 + 64 = 144

Explanation:

Consider the provided information.

Jill wants to find the quotient of 144÷8

144 ÷ 8 = 18

Now use the multiplication property.

We need to multiply a number let say a with 8 which will gives us 144.

This can be written as:

a × 8 = 144

The number is 18.

Multiplication property: 18 × 8 = 144

Now use the distributive property:

We can rewrite the number 144 as:

(8 × 10) + (8 × 8) = 80 + 64 = 144

Hence, by distributive property we can write it as: (8 × 10) + (8 × 8) = 80 + 64 = 144
